As Kinnevik AB (publ) is the sole shareholder of both Invik S.A. and of Kinnevik Internet Lux S.à r.l., the shares were transferred from one subsidiary to another subsidiary of Kinnevik AB (publ).
The sole shareholder of both the disposing and acquiring shareholders (as referred to above) provides this notification in order to notify the change in the chain of control of its indirect shareholding and to fulfill its own indirect shareholder's notification obligation and thus intends to exempt from their own direct shareholder's notification both its subsidiaries, Kinnevik Internet Lux S.à r.l. and Invik S.A.
